here_2_help Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 Is there some reason 52.216-11 and 52.216-12 cannot simply be one clause that applies to both contract types? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Mansfield Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 No, I think it could be written as one clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob7947 Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 If so, I guess (e)(1) or (f)(1) could be eliminated also. Send it into the FAR Council. This is what currently interests their managers. Apparently, these clauses are First Editions. Quote 16.307 Contract clauses. (e)(1) The contracting officer shall insert the clause at 52.216-11, Cost Contract—No Fee, in solicitations and contracts when a cost-reimbursement contract is contemplated that provides no fee and is not a cost-sharing contract. (2) If a cost-reimbursement research and development contract with an educational institution or a nonprofit organization that provides no fee or other payment above cost and is not a cost-sharing contract is contemplated, and if the contracting officer determines that withholding of a portion of allowable costs is not required, the contracting officer shall use the clause with its Alternate I. (f)(1) The contracting officer shall insert the clause at 52.216-12, Cost-Sharing Contract—No Fee, in solicitations and contracts when a cost-sharing contract is contemplated. (2) If a cost-sharing research and development contract with an educational institution or a nonprofit organization is contemplated, and if the contracting officer determines that withholding of a portion of allowable costs is not required, the contracting officer shall use the clause with its Alternate I.
